  • DROP FORGED, Heat Treated, and Oil-Hardened: Each wood splitting axe is forged from German C50 high-grade carbon steel, with a perfect hardness level - hard enough to avoid mushrooming but forgiving enough to avoid the possibility of this felling axe to chip or crack.
  • MADE IN WUPPERTAL, GERMANY: This 1844 Helko Werk Germany Handforged Twisted Steel Splitting Wedge is crafted in Germany carefully designed to avoid sharp debris from chipping.

These handmade German steel twisted splitting wedges have a wide striking face on its back, which is ideal for hammering. The quality of steel is a critical element for splitting wedges. The steel used to forge this wedge is German C50 High Grade Carbon Steel. The hardness is exactly the right balance to avoid chips or cracks, as well as to prevent soft mushrooming steel. Chipping pieces is a serious danger when using wedges, which is why it is very important to use wedges designed to avoid this hazard. These are dropforged, heat treated, and oil hardened. Many lesser quality splitting wedges will break down over time and need to be replaced, where as Helko wedges truly will last a lifetime.
